About this book
With its focus on narrow band imaging, this book is an excellent reference for new as well as experienced practitioners in the field of endoscopy. Narrow band imaging has brought about a revolutionary improvement in diagnostic endoscopy, enabling objective diagnosis and precise detection of lesions. It has enhanced the capability of endoscopy to facilitate qualitative diagnoses for the great benefit of patients who undergo endoscopic examinations. However, a standardized system of classification has not yet been established and many clinicians and researchers are not yet highly skilled in utilizing the technique or interpreting the images that are produced. This atlas addresses those issues, providing clear, simple and easy-to-understand descriptions illustrated with generous use of endoscopic images.
Reviews
“With a focus on different imaging techniques available for endoscopic evaluation, this book is a collection of images showing the pathology of the GI tract from the stomach to the anus. … This book will be helpful to anyone who uses narrow band imaging. The audience is practitioners who use narrow band imaging on a regular basis in the evaluation of lesions in the GI tract. … This is a very useful book.” (Matthew M. Lute, Doody’s Book Reviews, April, 2016)
